Earlier this month, a leak outed that a new white version of HTC EVO 4G LTE is underway to Sprint to reintroduce the the EVO’s lineup with in a whole new color option to breath new life into the model and create some buzz. As expected, Sprint today launched the white version of HTC Evo 4G LTE at its online store.

According to Sprint, the device won’t be available through third-party retailers and will be offered only through Sprint-owned sales channels. The white HTC Evo 4G LTE is on sale at price $199 after you sign up a two year contract making it a tough sell for anyone who isn’t a diehard HTC Evo fan. At the same price tag you can get the Samsung’s flagship smartphone – Galaxy S III though.
